Wow,
what
an
amazing
place
to
visit!
The
botanic
gardens
isn’t
the
easiest
to
get
to
if
you
don’t
have
your
own
vehicle
(it’s
a
bit
of
a
walk
from
the
nearest
bus
stop),
but
it’s
definitely
worth
the
trip.
The
gardens
are
free
to
enter
and
have
several
trails/walks
to
explore.
It’s
split
into
various
sections
including
a
multilevel
rainforest
(where
you
can
appreciate
all
the
different
levels
of
the
forest),
a
rock
garden
showcasing
a
lot
of
plants
from
Western
Australia,
and
a
banksia
garden
with
a
rich
variety
of
banksias
from
across
the
country.
The
focus
is
primarily
on
plants
native
to
Australia,
and
it’s
surprising
that
they’re
able
to
grow
such
a
diversity
of
species
despite
the
somewhat
harsh
weather
conditions
of
Canberra.
They
have
a
daily
free
guided
tour
at
11AM,
which
I’d
highly
recommend.
Andrew
was
our
guide
and
he
was
very
knowledgeable,
friendly,
and
obviously
enthusiastic
about
the
flora.
Such
a
great
tour!
Overall,
highly
recommend
for
both
locals
and
tourists!
